Patient's question:
Boys, who are already 7 years old, initially had a slightly sore throat. They noticed that the cough was quite severe and that they had a slightly feverish temperature. Please ask: What are the symptoms of tonsillitis in children?Doctor's answer:
Many children now suffer from recurrent tonsillitis, and the symptoms of tonsillitis are actually quite easy to identify. First, most children will feel severe throat pain, and many will also experience persistent low fever or sudden high fever at this time. Additionally, children may feel tired, have headaches, and in severe cases, may even have chills. At the same time, due to the diffuse congestion of the pharyngeal mucosa, the enlargement of the tonsils in children can be clearly observed. Children may also develop complications such as sepsis, arthritis, and skin disorders. Therefore, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly once these symptoms are noticed to prevent the occurrence of complications.
